Gunsmithing and Restoration Forum
Posted: Tue Nov 27, 2012 1:46 am
Alot of folk here probably do not know that I've been a working gunsmith for over 20 years now. I'm considering making a new tutorial set of forums on general gunsmithing tips and restoration tips. It wouldn't be the type of turorials about putting a screw in the wall for a painting.
It would be about general tips and things you can do to really restore something to its original look. Things like how to make screwdrivers so they cannot damage screw heads or how to properly take care of and use files. How to silver solder. I also have a few contributors willing to do tutorials who I highly respect as former teachers and colleagues from my past.
Before I start, I would like to know if anyone is interested in learning about these kinds of things? If there are a few folk interested I'll make a forum and do some simple tutorials about various tools and how too do's.
